  • THE FUTURE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY: Interview with Peter Hosemann
    The Future of Nuclear Energy: Interview with Peter Hosemann If you get cancer treatment today, it’s very likely you will get injected with a radioactive substance. That technology is born out of the nuclear enterprise. Without reactors, you wouldn’t have it. There are numerous examples of the benefits of nuclear engineering beyond just nuclear power. […]
